Provider | STMicroelectronics | |
Platform name | iNEMO Discovery M1 Inertial Platform | WeSU Wearable Inertial Platform |
STMicroelectronics srl participates in the EuroCPS project with the following inertial platforms:
The Discovery M1 opens the INEMO-M1 ecosystem to the worldwide developer community. It offers a means to explore and evaluate the INEMO-M1, providing complete access to all the benefits of the first 9-axis system-on-board (SoB) in the iNEMO® module family. The accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer and ARM® Cortex™-M3 32-bit MCU are fully accessible to the user firmware, enabling the implementation of complex and versatile inertial applications in fields such as robotics, personal navigation, gaming, and wearable sensors for healthcare/fitness or sport kinetics.
The Discovery M1 includes the LPS331AP pressure sensor, adding barometric and altimeter information to the inertial data to create a complete 10-DoF system. The pin-out of the two on-board connectors offer immediate access to all of the communication interfaces and peripherals of the INEMO-M1. The PC GUI combined with the firmware libraries permit quick sensor output display.
The iNEMO Suite (v2.5) includes a graphical user interface to exploit the Discovery M1 board features and display the sensor data. A Software Development Kit (SDK) is available to develop personalized PC applications. The SDK contains a compass application demo, a 3D Cube demo to show the Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS) capability of iNEMO Engine Lite. It provides a boot loader to easily update the firmware via DFU, a complete set of firmware libraries to manage the INEMO-M1 on-board sensors and a firmware framework based on FreeRTOSTM.
The iNEMO System in Package (SiP) LSM6DS3, featuring a 3D digital accelerometer and a 3D digital gyroscope is the inertial core of the WeSU evaluation board. WESU complements the inertial module with a low power ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller, a high performance magnetometer, a barometric pressure sensor, a power management circuitry and a Bluetooth® low energy wireless network processor.
WESU is a System Evaluation Board designed to provide a cost effective solution for precise motion sensing in wearable and object motion applications.
The connectivity granted by the best in class BlueNRG and supported by the integrated balun (BALF-NRG-01D3) permit to maximize the RF performances with low area occupancy and design effort.
Android and iOS APP, available on Google Play and Apple Store, can be used for displaying information sent by the WeSU through BLE connectivity as well as for setting operative modes.
Compliance with Bluetooth 4.0 (LE) stack specification allows to expose application functionalities through structured services and characteristics in which WeSU is hosting a GATT (Generic Attribute) Server while mobile app is acting as a GATT client.
Mobile Software Development Kit, is available to develop personalized applications , to implements
Supporting the application control by means of the iNEMO Engine software libraries for multi-sensor data fusion.
iNEMO Engine software uses advanced algorithms to integrate outputs from multiple MEMS sensors in a smart way, independently of environmental conditions, to reach the best performance.
The iNEMO engine be combined with ST’s iNEMO inertial modules allows to create the industry’s first complete and customizable hardware/software multi-axis MEMS sensor solutions for enhanced motion and accurate heading recognition.
